Hi All, New to the forum but hoping I can get some help. 4 of us, 30 year olds, are heading to Kohler in August for our first golf trip, let alone first major! And were pumped! That said, we are staying over in Mishicot for the week and are looking for suggestions on how to plan our wk. we hope to play golf once or twice and will arrive on Tuesday afternoon. What else do we do? We wanna catch some practice Wednesday too. What time do tee times start on Thursday morning? Starting to do some planning and hoping you guys can help me out. Thanks!

What do you guys like to do other than golf? Are you looking for recommendations of places to play as well? I am guessing the Thursday tee times would start at about 7:30am but I am not sure and they will definitely be posted before that day. I was thinking about going to one of the practice rounds but I probably will not end up going.

Yea any recommendations on places to play Tuesday or Wedmesday?

If there is anyway that you can get on the Irish course that week I would.

Otherwise a few very highly ranked courses in the state are out that way:

Blackwolf Run - This is probably the best option but it will book quickly that week I would imagine.

The Bog - The State Am seems to be played here a lot and is another great course.

The Bull at Pinehurst - also supposed to be very nice.

For places close by to visit Sheboygan is a nice place to go to on the lake.

BTW, Welcome to the Site!

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By xrayvizhen · Posted

      I'm not sure you're calculating the number of strokes you would need to give correctly. The way I figure it, a 6.9 index golfer playing from tees that are rated 70.8/126 would have a course handicap of 6. A 20-index golfer playing from tees that are rated 64/106 would have a course handicap of 11. Therefore, based on the example above, assuming this is the same golf course and these index & slope numbers are based on the different tees, you should only have to give 5 strokes (or one stroke on the five most difficult holes if match play) not 6. Regardless, I get your point...the average golfer has no understanding of how the system works and trying to explain it to people, who haven't bothered to read the documentation provided by either the USGA or the R&A, is hopeless. In any case, I think the WHS as it currently is, does the best job possible of leveling the playing field and I think most golfers (obviously, based on the back & forth on this thread, not all golfers) at least comprehend that.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      Yes it's true in a large sample like a tournament a bunch of 20 handicaps shouldn't get 13 strokes more than you. One of them will have a day and win. But two on one, the 7 handicap is going to cover those 13 strokes the vast majority of the time. 20 handicaps are shit players. With super high variance and a very asymmetrical distribution of scores. Yes they shoot 85 every once in a while. But they shoot 110 way more often. A 7 handicap's equivalent is shooting 74 every once in a while but... 86 way more often?
